11 Ideas To Prepare You For Advent

As I am nearly half way through my Gift Guides, most of my Christmas posts will be wrapped up before December. So bear with me if you are slightly over my Christmas recommendations – this advent won’t last forever and I have some good fashion & activity round ups in the pipe line.

So for those that are as excited as a 6 year old boy on Christmas eve, I would like to introduce two charming young men who have set up From Tree To You.

They have just left uni and whilst looking for a job (contact them if you have any start ups that need a helping hand!), they have set up a Christmas Tree delivery service across London.

They aren’t any old Christmas trees, they are Fir Nordrum Trees which are bushy, green and non drop.

They will deliver, unload and position the finest tree for you on the following 3 dates –

1st December

4th December

11th December

See prices below…

THEY WILL ALSO BE DRESSED UP AS FATHER CHRISTMAS AND RUDOLPH SO MAKE SURE THE KIDS ARE AT HOME!!

If you aren’t happy with the tree (you will be – I am delighted by mine that is currently propped against the fence in the garden) they will happily replace it.

Trees ordered by 25th November will get a 5% discount. BTW They also sell stands…

Please order your tree from this start up and spread the festive love –

Whilst I am on the subject of preparing for Christmas, fellow Mummy Blogger, Laura Rutherhood has painted some beautiful wreath paintings. They are only £18 and you can also get them personalised in the middle of the wreath!

Not one for a cheesy Christmas jumper, I thought this company was worth a mention as they are actually pretty lovely, especially if you want to give a little nod to Santa.

Pearl & Earl have a range of sweaters with fun logo’s on. This is my favourite and at £35 I might just get it!

I am also loving the new advent of unique calendars that have sprung up this year. Gone are the days of a simple chocolate one, let lone a biblical picture one (although I still think they should have one as the pictures are good prompts to tell the Christmas story – we mustn’t forget what Christmas is actually about!) Anyway, I diversify.

Now, Elf On The Shelf. Are you one of those families? I haven’t been but I think I might be this year. Anything to keep them on the straight and narrow!

Elf For Christmas £24.99

Elf For Christmas is definitely the sweetest elf on the shelf. Elf For Christmas, it also includes certificates, reward charts, stickers, arrival letter and a letter to Santa. The kids will love it!

I walked into Indian Summer Shop yesterday and was blown away by the gorgeous & subtle Christmas smell. It was this…

True Grace Fig Room Spray £20

Much safer than a candle and more effective than the diffusers for a short sharp burst.


Wow Toys Advent Calender £25 – Good For Little Ones

I have had a sneak preview of this and it is super cute.

Craft Beer Calendar £85

Beer. So obvious who this one is for, I actually thought about removing it.

Bunting Advent Calendar (with all the sweets!) £25

If they didn’t get enough fillings from Halloween, give them a helping hand with this. Wouldn’t you be psyched if you’re a kid and this was your advent calendar?

Benefit Advent Calender £35

Gret for au pair, teenager or… tween! (Joke)

And for yourself, seeing as it is doubtful someone will actually fill one for you – what about this?

Charlotte Tilbury Advent Calendar £150

A steal… hmm but wow. I love her products so a lucky dip each day in December would be pretty nice!
